Question 18 • CMS 2025-2026 English I CREDIT RECOVERY

Cynthia is writing a fictionalized story about the real life of a nurse. She used a scene from her favorite television sitcom as the source material for her research on the life of nurses. How will Cynthia’s teacher most likely critique her source material?

Answer
A
The teacher will say that Cynthia did not make a good choice in source material but it doesn’t matter because fiction doesn’t require source material.
B
The teacher will say that Cynthia did not make a good choice in source material because a nonfiction source would be more reliable.
C
The teacher will say that Cynthia made a good choice in source materials because a fictional source is reliable.
D
The teacher will say that Cynthia made a good choice in source materials but it doesn’t matter because fiction doesn’t require nonfiction source material.

Explanation

Because Cynthia is writing about the real life of a nurse, her research should be based on accurate information. A scene from a sitcom is fictional and may not portray nurses’ lives reliably. The teacher would most likely recommend using a nonfiction source, such as an interview or a factual book about nursing, so the story’s real-life details are credible.
